Bobbie Chavez, MS. (she/her/they)

As the founder of Early Childhood Justice.org, a woman of color, a single parent, over 30 years working in Early Childhood Education as a Lead Teacher, Program Director, Mentor Teacher, Professional Growth Advisor (PGA), PGA Mentor, Training/Workshop Facilitator, and first generation college graduate Bobbie has lived experience. Events since the 2016 elections, a world pandemic, climate crisis, and global wars brought to light the injustices that thrive within the oppressive systems of the world. It's time that each of us self-reflect through hard conversations, promote a future where  justice and equity are part of children's everyday conversations, and begin to alchemize an Earth where every child is seen, safe, fed, and loved.
